Jamie Miller, Medical Assistant Program Graduate, RMA & Registered Phlebotomist - Pueblo Campus, 2022 2022
I am a registered phlebotomist and a registered medical assistant. I have a job as a phlebotomist full time at Immuno Tech Plasma Donation Center, so that's pretty cool. I originally got back into school because I wanted to show my kids not to ever give up. I went back to school, graduated, got my high school diploma, and then went straight to college and here I am.
Chris GoldSchmidt, Automotive Technician Program Graduate - Pueblo Campus, 2022 2022
All the instructors out there are really awesome. I like the shop environment. You get to kind of work on, whatever you're having problems with, with your car or whoever's car at that time. Get a couple certifications while you're in there…There's a lot of cool people out there and they make it fun to learn.
Felicia Medina, Medical Assistant Program Graduate, RMA - Pueblo Campus, 2022 2022
I'm a registered medical assistant and I work at Associates Women's Healthcare in Pueblo. My experience at IntelliTech has been life changing. I do have three kids. I'm a single mom. It was really easy to go through school, enjoyed that about it, and now I graduated, finished school in December. I got a job in January. Miss Emily, Miss Mary, Miss Crystal, Miss. Kelly, pretty much all of the medical assistant team. I wanna give a shout out to them and thank you for giving me all the tools that I need to find a job where I'm at. You definitely changed my life.
Melissa Fernandez, Medical Assistant Program Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2024 2024
Best place to get started with your career, I had amazing instructor's who care deeply about your progression, throughout the time spent in college and afterwards. Ms. lo , Mr. Thorn , Ms. Q , Ms. Serena , Mr. Joe have played a huge role in my success today. If you want a change in your life & amazing people to be around this is the place to start. Thank you ALL!!!! Wouldn't change a thing!
Jazmine Boston, Medical Assistant Program Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2024 2024
Honestly, if you’re looking to get into a trade and you don’t know where to start I definitely would recommend this place. I was skeptical about going back to school and where to even start but when I got recommended Intellitec. I dont regret my decision. The staff and students here are great and understand. The learning opportunities are endless and the job placement is really great.
Eve Power, Dental Assistant Program Graduate - Grand Junction Campus, 2025 2025
I now work at Hudson Family dental….I thoroughly enjoyed the people I was in class with. I really enjoyed my instructors. I think they did a phenomenal job, especially for someone like me who didn't really take school all that seriously her entire life, and it took a chance and you know that's really all that education and extending your education really is.
Colton Mahoney, Cosmetology Program Graduate - Grand Junction Campus, 2025 2025
My favorite part about school was the teachers just encouraging me and making me feel my most authentic self. I did it, I graduated and I got my license!
Ethan Richards, Automotive Technician Program Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2024 2024
Found out about Intellitec through my older step brother who took the automotive course. Incredibly easy and painless enrollment process with super helpful instructors and staff. The electrical technician program representative Brandon is very thorough and attentive, my CCR course instructor Mr. Kirk made each day fun and handled the class very well. I can confidently say I've had a better experience here than any other educational program.
Neal Ferreira, Electrical Technician Program Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2023 2023
I graduated from IntelliTec College through the electrical program, electrical technician certification as well as I’m a member of the national technical honor society. I happen to work now with the company who built the store that I was previously working at in my previous job. I like hard work. I like the satisfaction of getting something done and being the one to complete it and being able to look back at what you’ve done being satisfied, having a sense of fulfillment. I’d have to say my favorite people there were Mr. crank for giving us a hard time when we needed it, showing us a little bit of the real world, but Mr. Embry has to be my favorite. It seemed like I didn’t have enough questions for him to answer and he was extremely patient with me and I respect him a lot for that.
Gerardo Bemudez, Computer Systems Technician Program Graduate - Albuquerque Campus, 2024 2024
I graduated from the CST program and what I really liked about the program is that it allowed someone like me, who doesn't really have a background in that field to not only grasp the information but really retain it with the added training and lectures and the community of classmates. I really appreciate Intellitec for allowing me to start my career. I work for the Bernalillo County’s IT department.
Christopher Castro, Computer Systems Technician Program Graduate - Albuquerque Campus, 2024 2024
I graduated from CST as a computer technician and I’m excited…All my hard work and encouragement, I encourage everyone to come to IntelliTec and just try it out. I think it’s the best college I ever had. They always taught me a lot of things. It’s a hard journey to push yourself and everything and all the instructors are amazing.
Gloria Ekweh, Medical Assistant Program Graduate - Grand Junction Campus, 2025 2025
Right now I'm working as a CNA but I'm really looking forward to working as a medical assistant because it's important. As a medical assistant you need to do a lot of work to help people and I enjoy it so much and I love to meet people to try to help them out. The fact that I've become a qualified medical assistant with help from all the teachers you know the lectures they were so good and accommodating they're always ready to help out and that's really important in training.
Annett Jurado, Medical Assistant Program Graduate, RMA - Albuquerque Campus, 2024 2024
Excellent school, this school has helped me build my confidence in a new career. The MA program is a wonderful career. The teachers are amazing especially Ms.Danielle she is a patient, kind and loving towards all her students. She takes care of us, she is willing to go out her way to help her students. She will guide us towards success.
Crystal Noble, Medical Assistant Program Graduate, RMA - Albuquerque Campus, 2024 2024
I graduated from the Medical Assistant program and work for New Mexico Clinical Research and Osteoporosis Center. I’d like to give a shout out to MS Danielle and MS Tilly for being the most awesome teachers that I could have ever had in this program. And thanks to intelliTec, I’m graduating!
Jordan Guy, Medical Assistant Program Graduate, RMA - Colorado Springs Campus, 2023 2023
I graduated with my mA and HCA degree. I’ve done the RMA exam and the CRP certification. I work at a Quick Care MD and I like it a lot. I love taking care of patients, making their day better and working with a beautiful team too. My favorite part is getting to know the science behind certain things but also making people at ease and just learning a lot.
Jason Swanson, Automotive Technician Program Graduate - Grand Junction Campus, 2024 2024
I graduated from the automotive program Under Louisville...he was a good teacher kept us informed helped me get into the career I'm in now at Wagner Equipment. I'm on big equipment now so I seem to like that I get to rebuild and tear apart big equipment engines. I really like the program and would recommend it to whoever else
Steven Bailey, Automotive Technician Program Graduate - Albuquerque Campus, 2022 2022
I decided to come back into the automotive industry and realize that this was something that I really wanted to do. I really love to work on cars and trucks, so this school has blessed me with great instructors Gilbert Sanchez, Stephen White, Robert Overton and Carlos Hercules. It’s just been a great experience. They are not only great instructors, but great people who actually care about people and will help you in any way, shape, or form.
Elisa, Automotive Technician Program Graduate - Albuquerque Campus, 2024 2024
Just want to say this program is really good at refining your skills if you're a seasoned tech and good at starting skills if you're a new tech. I was hired and worked at Dan’s automotive and was also hired at Rich Ford during the program. Career advisors will really get you into the job you want. I learned a lot about basic care systems and how to diagnose them. Diagnosing is a crucial part of the whole job so you need to be really good at diagnosing. My parents inspired me to get into this field. My dad wanted me to either be in the military or join a trade and they said I wouldn’t be strong enough to be a mechanic so I wanted to prove them wrong and now me and my dad work on cars together!
Nathan Dillman, Automotive Technician Program Graduate, ASE Certified - Colorado Springs Campus, 2022 2022
I am an automotive technician. I graduated from IntelliTec for the automotive technician degree. The best part about the class was getting to be hands-on and learn everything about cars. I’ve earned my certifications in brake and alignment, steering, suspension, engine diagnostic. I am working in my field and I was in school actually. It made it really easy.
Sammy Montgomery, Automotive Technician Program Graduate, ASE Master Certified - Albuquerque Campus, 2024 2024
I graduated from IntelliTec College in the automotive program. I was working in the morning, so I did the night class. I just stuck through, kept coming, and if it wasn't for the instructors that I had, I wouldn’t have graduated for sure. I’ve learned a lot. Now I know each little thing in a vehicle is a system and it makes it a lot easier to work on vehicle performance.
Victoria Stoker-Judice, Medical Billing & Coding Program Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2022 2022
I graduated with my associates in medical billing and coding. I have my AAPC. I'm certified as a coder. I am working in the filed as a billing specialist for Ahawk services. All the instructors were really helpful.
Steven Sanchez, Medical Billing & Coding Program Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2022 2022
I graduated from the medical billing and coding program. So far I have my CPC, Certified professional coder, which is the apprentice right now and I hope to keep moving forward and keep getting additional credentials. My favorite part of the program? It was just a good experience overall. I knew that I would be learning things that I already knew about, kind of, and so each class just kind of built on to the next class and helped me to progress.
Nicole Jarvey-Rojas, Medical Billing & Coding Program Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2022 2022
I graduated with my medical billing and coding certificate and I actually already work in the field. I’m a billing coordinator for family care centers. My favorite course was the theology and I am looking forward to learning more about the billing field, the medical field and therapy.
Sherry Whitsett, Refrigeration & HVAC Program Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2023 2023
I graduated from the HVAC program here at IntelliTec College. I also work at the United States Postal Service. I am an area maintenance tech and this has helped me out immensely while in the field. My favorite class had to be Riley. He went through blueprints, designing our own ductwork for install and that was pretty phenomenal. I have never done anything like that before and it was pretty incredible.
Jacob Wesson, Refrigeration & HVAC Program Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2023 2023
I graduated from HVAC at Intellitech. I already got a job in the field….I like brazing, working on metal and hydronics.
Samantha Sanchez, Massage Therapy Program Graduate - Albuquerque Campus, 2024 2024
I have a teenage daughter and I was working two jobs and I just did not think I had the time. I was already stressed and at my limit and I just didn’t think that I could pull it all together to go to school and finish….but then once I got started, I really liked it and I wanted to finish and I love learning…I love working on people, I love the body. It’s all really interesting to me how you can work one thing and it affects another thing. I just love everything about it.
Christopher Armstrong, Massage Therapy Program Graduate - Albuquerque Campus, 2023 2023
I graduated from massage therapy. I’m working at Massage Envy right now. This program that I went through was the best school I ever went…The massage therapy program was amazing. The teachers were amazing. I couldn’t thank them enough. They taught me so much.
Tremayne Mitchell, IntelliTec Electrical Technician Program Graduate, NTHS Member - Colorado Springs Campus, 2025 2025
I used to do flooring and it just started getting hard on me; I figured [electrical] would be a definite trade and maybe I'd be making more money...My vision for my future is to become an electrician and I might try to become a master. I seen a flyer for the program and I looked them up and figured it's probably a good fit for me… If anything, it was a confidence booster for me because of getting the good grades and realizing I know what I'm doing. Honestly, my favorite part was all of it; it was kind of rough starting, but once I got into it, I was right into the groove . Shout out to all my instructors — Morgan, Brandon, Demetrius, and Tim.
Eric Nitchey, IntelliTec Electrical Technician Program Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2025 2025
I graduated from [IntelliTec] as an electrical apprentice. I was just working full time, didn't really have a career; so I looked into IntelliTec and they provided me with that, with the schooling and the hands-on learning . My vision for my future is to become an electrician, knock those four years out of apprenticeship and become a journeyman and just go on from there. My favorite part was probably the hands-on learning. It was cool to see everything in the residential area and practice . The tiny house was a lot of fun—wiring that up and grounding it and running wire through it . I chose IntelliTec because it was pretty close to where I work and they were really helpful and helped me get those first steps into the door of learning and getting ready.
Maloni Briggs, IntelliTec Medical Assistant Program Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2025 2025
Before I came to IntelliTec, I had just graduated from high school, so I was working and IntelliTec helped me get the courage to get back into school. I really liked when we went and we externed at the places; I ended up externing at this foot clinic and it was so cool. It made me realize that I'm really good at customer service, so that was nice. I want to work in plastic surgery eventually — just working in the field of helping people. My advice is to always give it a try to the very end...you'll meet some cool people.
Kayleen Thompson, IntelliTec Medical Assistant Program Graduate, RMA - Colorado Springs Campus, 2025 2025
I earned my RMA certification...Before I came to IntelliTec, I was working graveyard shifts at Come and Go and Maverick. I did the whole transition; I then was doing night classes on top of working graveyard shifts, and I’m a full-time mom of five... I was also working at a detox facility to try to start some kind of medical field so that I would kind of get an idea of how things were going. My vision for my future in the next five years, I want to own my own house. I plan on going back to the medical field; I actually want to work in Pediatrics more. I really loved it... I want to give a huge shout out to Robbie—he's one of the main reasons that I completed the courses—and Serena; they were huge supporters.
Crimson Nash, IntelliTec Medical Assistant Graduate - Colorado Springs Campus, 2025 2025
I earned my certificate and I am currently working in the field; I am a medical assistant over at Associates in Gastroenterology on North Circle. I think the teachers really made it for me. I was going through a really difficult time and they helped me out a lot. Roby is so fun and entertaining and Thorne is always there for questions and answers and Q is just—I could have a bad day walking [in] and she was just always there . I already had medical experience—I was eight years medical, so I used to be a Navy Corpsman—but being a medical assistant was new] and going to college the way I was was very new to me because I'd never gone to school outside of high school
Brianna (Bri) Groller, IntelliTec Medical Assistant Program Graduate, RMA - Colorado Springs Campus, 2025 2025
I was doing home health for about four and a half years before I thought about advancing my career. I chose IntelliTec because they seemed like they would help you be more successful and to graduate faster, quicker, but also you would learn the skills and all the necessary things you need.My favorite instructor was Miss Q; she's very funny, very helpful, and she knows how to keep her classroom very lively. My vision is to take this certificate that I’ve earned and just keep going forward and use this as a stepping stone in my life and my career. I got hired at a cardiology office; I do EKGs, vitals, a lot of direct patient care and I love it.
Yuniquea Harris, Yuniquea Harris, IntelliTec Medical Assistant Program Graduate, RMA - Colorado Springs Campus, 2025 2025
I am a graduate of IntelliTec College and I am currently a medical assistant. I am currently working in my field at a pain clinic; we help people with all kind of pain, so it's overall great . I did earn my RMA certification. My favorite part of the program was the communication, the attention, the support that they have there. It's not just a building, it's a family; they got you .

This place is my second home.
Bailey Luchsinger, IntelliTec Medical Assistant Program Graduate – Colorado Springs Campus December 2019
I was in the medical assistant program and have been employed since the day I finished my externship thanks to Lori Savage. Throughout the entirety of my time at IntelliTec she helped me whenever I needed! The knowledge and experience she has is irreplaceable. All of the teachers I met in this program were amazing and dedicated.
Jamie Hite, IntelliTec Medical Assistant Program Graduate – Grand Junction Campus November 2019
I am so glad I choose Intellitec College to earn my Medical Assisting certificate. All the other local medical programs seem to have waiting lists and prerequisites and are on a regular fall start schedule. With Intellitec I was able to start immediately and will be done in less than a year. I love all my instructors and I love the hands-on approach, especially all the lab time! Some schools you don’t even get to actually draw blood but we get in over 100 sticks. If you want to be a medical assistant or phlebotomist this is the best place in the area.
Kerry Spann, Refrigeration & HVAC Technician Program Graduate – Colorado Springs Campus August 2018
Intellitec has allowed me to expand my overall knowledge with their professionalism and attention to detail. As I studied and learned this new skill the instructors were very patient and helpful in every way possible.

The Career Services is awesome. Joe Zeman helped me revamp my resume to match the needs of the Colorado area and landed me a great career at Carmax.
Salma Gonzalez, IntelliTec Medical Assistant Program Graduate – Colorado Springs Campus November 2021
I heard about IntelliTec’s Medical Assistant program through my sister. I was not sure what I wanted to do or even if the medical field would be something that I would enjoy. The instructors were all really good and were also very helpful with anything you needed help on. The hands on learning was what I enjoyed the most, and made me improve on my skills. Ms. Laurie was a great teacher to have. She always went above and beyond to get to know her students and helped them succeed to her best ability. Not only does she help her students in her career but she is also there for you when you need someone to talk to. She is easy to talk to and she always gives good advice and is willing to work with you as long as you apply yourself. I really Appreciate her, it’s because of her I have a job that I love. I’m really glad that I chose to go to this school and very grateful for everything I have learned from there. It made me grow as a person.
Norberta Vergara, IntelliTec Medical Assistant Degree Program Graduate – Albuquerque Campus September 2022
Ok so I did return for the Degree program and again it has been a great school, every teacher and staff member are understanding and caring and have worked with me when ever I needed something or just the extra help!! Thank you IntelliTec for being there these last 2 years!!!
Austin Hrzich, IntelliTec Automotive Technician Program Graduate – Albuquerque Campus November 2018
Great school! Learned so much from instructors who’ve actually worked in the field. Awesome for people who work full-time. Really work with you to be successful.
